Recommend a rack...

[jay clock]

I have a rack on my winter bike that I never really liked. It looks wrong as it the top of the rack is miles above the rear wheel - approx 11 cm.

Any ideas about ones which sit lower? http://www.wiggle.co.uk/p/cycle/7/Madison_Summit_Pannier_Rear_Rack/5360032022/ looks a bit better but it is hard to tell the size from the pic

Some racks, are designed to be used on particular type of bike; Disc, road, mtb or 29" bike setups, guess the average tyre to rack distance should be about 5 to 6 Cms, you need to check this when you purchase a rack. Personally I use racks from http://www.oldmanmountain.com/Pages/RackPages/RearRacks.html
which can be purchased here inthe UK from:

As they bolt onto my bike using the V brake bosses.

The Madison Summit is a damn good rack, strong, well made, light and excellent VFM. 5 year warranty as well. Avoid Blackburn as in a word - crap.

Search is your friend. There have been lots of threads on "what rack..."
